Why ever did the Minister of Ecuador want to organize a medieval meal in  
Paris in 1926?
 
Whatever the reason, the great cook Prosper Montagné was happy to  oblige, 
complete with straw and branches on the floor and guests wiping their  hands 
on the tablecloth. Was this the first major recreation of a medieval meal  
in modern times?
